New to the Z world, kind of...

newb · 05-02-2012, 09:08 AM

I sold my 07 Z06(worked best for me financially) and picked up an 09 BSM 370Z, 8K miles, 6M, sports package. I've only owned Mustangs and Corvettes, so, the "import" world is new to me. Although, the power of the 370Z is no where near the C6 Z06, overall, the 370Z feels more solid and tight. It handles better, the interior is 100 times better, looks awesome, and it's still pretty peppy!

On a side not, is there any way that I can tell if I have self healing paint? I'm a car detailer and I'd rather NOT have self healing paint. I've polished an Infiniti with self healing paint, and it was a pain in the a** to work on.

that paint is exclusive to infinity. nissan paint sucks equally though, with the soft, eco-friendly crap that they use. it chips easily. but its no problem polishing, waxing or whatever.

Welcome and congrats.

I'm pretty sure the Z has the self-destructing paint.
